CIC Student Wins Dance Competition

Last month, we welcomed both returning students and newcomers to Chelsea Independent College. Even though it was a busy month full of changes and fresh starts, some of our students managed to challenge themselves beyond the classroom too.

A-Level student Bogdan Borelov joined us this year from Kazakhstan to study A-Level Economics, Mathematics, Further Mathematics and Physics, a reflection of his great passion for both numbers and science. Along with his studies, he very much enjoys dancing: “I find the contrast between science and dancing incredible and useful at the same time. While dancing I have the opportunity to ‘switch off’ and relax. This way, it is very easy to combine the two; it is something I love.”

Bogdan has attended several international competitions and workshops world-wide, including NBA Dance Battle in Paris in April 2018. His hard work paid off on 22nd September at a Hip Hop dance competition in London, where he beat his competitors to win first prize and an invitation to attend a follow-up event in December. In the meantime, he will be attending an international dance competition in Germany as well as focusing on his studies, of course!
